The aim of this paper is to obtain coefficient estimates of the integral operator of the form:
and
using the relationship between starlike and convex functions and give its implication to disease control. Also, we obtain the growth and distortion theorems for the operator.
Let A denote the class of normalized univalent functions of the form
![]() | (1) |
which are analytic in the unit disc
with 
In the class of analytic functions in (1) above, the coefficients
is the quotient of the nth derivative of the function been expressed in Taylor series expansion and n!. Derivatives, whether partial or total, describe the slope of a function which is the steepness of a line. It is a known fact that the larger the slope, the steeper the line and vice versa. The coefficients
play prominent role in analytic functions. Thus, in applying analytic functions to any area of life, one needs to consider it's coefficient bounds. The author in 6 stated that starlike and convex functions, which are aspect of analytic functions have its applications in human physiology, physical and natural phenomenon. Analytic functions can also be applied to curtailing the spread of any disease, or its occurrence. Here, we think of applying analytic functions to prevention of population of carrier of disease organism from being transformed to infectious population and thereby preventing them from being transformed to disease population. In 10, major categories of infectious agents and common vectors and vehicles of disease were given while Harvard health publishing in 9, gave some ways of preventing infections, World health Organization in 11 stated that there is an urgent need to re-establish basic infection control measures and in 12 gave measures of controlling the spread of infectious diseases, which is still very relevant today. Different authors have derived several differential operators. Author in 4, derived a new multiplier differential operator, in an attempt to get a class of analytic functions with finer coefficients bounds which give a better result in an application mentioned above.
For the function f of the form (1) in A, the following results are well known: f is said to be starlike respectively convex if and only if
![]() |
And
![]() |
Swamy 7, introduced a multiplier differential operator of the form
defined by:
![]() |
which is analytic and univalent in the unit disk. For details see 7.

Furthermore, let
![]() |
and
![]() |
we define the convolution of

by:
![]() | (7) |
In this paper, we obtain the coefficients bound for the class
and apply it to disease control measure.

Fixing the value of x and restructuring, we have the result.
Remark: The above theorem shows the relationship between the convexity of the integral operator in (5) and the starlikeness of the differential operator in (4).

Now, we establish two of the fundamental theorems about univalent functions in relation to function in the subclass
the growth and distortion theorems, which provide bounds on
and
respectively. Theorems (4) and (5) below are the growth and distortion theorems respectively.
Theorem 4: Let

![]() |
Similarly,
![]() |
Fixing the value of

and rearranging gives the result.
Theorem 5: Let

Then
![]() |
Proof: The proof follows from theorem 4.
In this article, we take the coefficients of the analytic functions in the above theorems as the size of some dynamic parameters, which could be infectious agents, such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and helminthes, that need to be curtailed to achieve the above aim and the
and
are infection control measures. Thus, to achieve reduction in the infectious agents, we need to reduce the slope of the class of functions
![]() |
which is the coefficients
It is noted from the above that the higher the control measures, the smaller the coefficient bounds. And that the coefficient bounds in the theorems above is of less magnitude than those obtained in the previous literature, thus it will yield a better result in the prevention we aimed at.
